Is Doc really beyond any chances of redemption and freeing himself from further suffering? And if he regains his pre-amnesia memories then definitively he'll take a blade, take a car, drive out of Rhodes Island off to some middle of nowhere and contemplate suicide.
After the Babel event, it's clear that only friggin time travel would allow him to fix all the shit that happens in the game.

The KFC skins made it to Global. I only care for Ifrit, good luck spending 5 times what chinks and japs spent for two skins + shipping for cheap plastic instead of some eatables.

I played this game a long time ago, wasn't super far, and didn't (as far as I know) have any rare meta units. If I want to try it again, should I start from the beginning?

>>1485468
Depends how far your "not super far" is. If you've got good chunk of ops developed, stick with them. Even if you get some modern meta rerolling it wont get you far without investments so it will be a loose in the long run.

>>1485818
I didn't have anyone ascended (promoted? I forget the term in this game) more than once, and I believe I was in the chapter after Misha.

>>1485819
Do yo have anything good? Or limited stuff?
Also looking back, not having maxed 3*s or E2s wasn't that enjoyable.

Stay. There's no way to get Yatoalt ever again and most recent stuff (last year) are made around her and Texalt.
E2+Mod Cuora (S2M3, could be your first E2, better be a low rarity you will always use + survivability)
E2+Mod Texas (S3M3)
E2+Mod Yatoalt (S2M3, S3M3)
Fortress Defenders (Firewhistle) are peak fun

>>1485912
Alright. Are there any resources for using quick redploy or summoner operators more effectively?

>>1485916
Quick early dp from bagpipe+myrtle+agent+ogtexas

>>1486026
Alright, that makes sense.
So build up Cuora, Texas, and Kirin Yato for a solid core, then focus on Bagpipe and Myrtle to help support the characters I like using, then focus on said characters?

>>1486103
Add one sniper and caster to your main squad. These units usually don't need high investments.

Man, trying to get 620 in CC is fucking hard. Does anyone know a low rarity clear for it?

Which mod is better for Hoshiguma? 4 block+32% to resist damage sounds really fucking nutty, but I can also see a lot of merit in 26% self DEF+11% ally DEF.

i'd only switch if they finally give her aggro module but i doubt that would happen.

>>1487217
who?

>>1487229
Kaltsit. Ideally, I'd like to get both, but I want to prioritize the better mod for now.

None is better so just pick based on your preferred playstyle(frd/sustain).

>>1487255

If anything, intermezzos beside the abyssal hunter saga add more context to the main story.

>>1489448
We're getting to the point where side stories are more important than the main plot.

At least we get to see new things and working with different groups of people in different regions in those side stories, while in the main plot we still have to deal with the same bunch of losers for years.

>>1497619
Sorry to hear that, anon.
I was lucky enough to get her in my second 10-pull. Once in a while the gacha gods smile upon you.

30 pulls got black knight
Even tho it's been years since I've read any story I fucking love everything about her, she's just perfect in every way
God bless her

>>1497619
Got her in 3 rolls, lifes good.
Last character I went for I put 110 rolls down, got shining, mudrock, saria. so I know the pain.

>>1497619
Got her in the 40-60 pulls.
And I must say...SHE'S VERY LORE ACCURATE.

I'm kinda stuck on 2-10 on the main story. How can I beat it? Current team format. Amiya, Spot, Myrrh, Lappland, Kroos, Platinum, Hung, Diamante, Hibiscus, Rangers, Siege, and Ethan

>>1499089
How leveled up are your ops?

>>1497725
Also situations with her can be pretty hilarious.
Just read her files on when Warfarin was examining her.

>>1499123
In that same order 50, 55,45,50,32,50,50,46,40,30,50,45

>>1499128
Drop Siege near the crossroad immediately where the first enemies appear.
Quickly drop Spot next to the 2nd lane if you have enough DP. Also drop a medic near them.
You need an Executor class operator to quickly drop on the lane down to block the Senior Casters long enough to deploy Hung on said lain. So drop Rangers and put in Gravel if you have her.
Put Platinum and Diamante near Siege and drop in Ethan.
Remember that there should be complete medic cover because the upper lane will have a Senior Caster appearing.
BTW, drop Lappland a tile further from Hung.

>>1499133
Thank you for your help I was able to beat the level and now I'm on Chapter 3. Thanks again

It's about time they add a fucking skip feature on farming stage. Instead we got this shitty auto retake, which is already available since day1 with macro, and for whatever reason they also put a fucking limit on it.

So after the whole Victoria arc...where will Arknights go now with the story?

More nonsensical shit that would somehow lead to endfield.

>>1536685

>>1536685
Everyone wants Talulah at one point to be playable.
I on the other hand want the story to reveal that she became Queen of Victoria, but instead of limiting herself to a puppet queen, she goes full queen and pushes reforms that not only makes the lives of Infected folks better, but also forcing safety regulations in factories that would at least greatly limit the number of infections. Not to mention recreating Gaul and Tarant, but as vassal states (yet with enough autonomy to keep their cultures intact).

Crossovers that will probably never, ever happen:
>DOOM, with Doomguy/Doomslayer being a tanky, high damage lord guard with him whipping out the BFG as his 3rd skill
>Command & Conquer, with Kane as a unique support character with some fun skills and talents along with some really good command center abilities

>>1568972
Ideally, you should've joined at or before the MonHun collab at the least, since it had one of the most busted characters in the game and gives you more than enough time to build up your roll currency, but right now is your best time. The R6S collab is one of a handful of limited events, and it also happens to have Ela, a meta character that is perfect for newbies. If you join now, or at least before 19, you can nab her and maybe even another meta character (Surtr) from the standard banner.

Yay, got Ela. She's a beast.

Uh, if I'm reading what you asked correctly then yes it's a new story chapter, but no, for the next couple weeks or so you can run the stages if you've done 1-10.

what the fuck is 14-21, why make a level with 800 enemies when you only have to kill one?

I haven't decided yet so I'm doing s3 for w'alter now. I'll probably go s3.

Doc (You) did nothing wrong though.
Your race spent millennia observing the rise and fall of countless civilisations, the birth and destruction of planets and galaxies. Their final conclusion was that everything is meaningless and they couldn't escape from the inevitable. Originium was the final solution your entire race with their millennia of experience came up with, but somehow the ideals of a cute pink haired girl can trump the inevitable? Obviously I know this is a game so there needs to be some hope and a way forward to tell a story.

>>1605056
Doc did a shitload of bad stuff he now regrets and the Ancient's plan of turning Terra and everything organic into a planetoid chunk of not!Tyberium is also probably futile due to the eldritch aliens the doc described as lumberjacks out of nowhere probably would tank with ease whatever the Ancients wanted to throw at them.

I decided to burn 200 more pulls last night to get tomertosa. I just hope I have enough saved up again by the time cholunday is back since that's the slut I was really saving up for.

I've got plenty of maxed out ops - sometimes I do next to nothing because the person I'm playing with puts his ops in front of mine or he places some unit that kills everything. Other times I get the most kills.
It's a very casual thing, don't overthink it.

>>1614336
Like most gatchashit you can play Arknights for free if you play casually, and the free rolls will pile up over time if you're checking in regularly. Also like most mobile games I would say whether you spend or not Arknights the game is basically designed to be enjoyed for shorter sessions, like maybe an hour a day. If you'd rather sit down to a game for 6+ hour sessions then you're better off on other platforms. Good luck, friend.

This is more of a general statement than a response to that post but I really don't mind a little whaling in this. I don't go buying OP or anything but I used to pick up the occasional pack on top of the monthly card since I was aware that it was keeping me from spending money on other shit. It would be one thing if I were looking at it in a vacuum or if the gacha were as greedy as the average Mihoyo game, but with it being fairly generous, it getting regular substantial content updates, and it not requiring any attention to grind/farm it finally helped me quit playing MMOs (so far) for good and kept me from wasting my time and occasionally money on random games I didn't really care that much about. It's been a great novelty drip feed and since I started playing it's probably saved me way more money on random bullshit entertainment than I would've spent otherwise.

Is anyone playing on CN who could confirm something about the base QoL changes for me?
I just saw picrel showing that timers until fully rested are no longer shown in operator assignment. I've seen video showing that timers until zero morale are shown if you tap a working facility in the overview screen, so does it show everyone's timers until full if you select a dorm in overview in the same way?
I couldn't find a shot of that in any video about the updates and I'm trying to figure out how this affects me. I set timers for my daily base rotation based on those, so either it's visible by operator on the overview and streamlines setting timers a little, or it's gone and I should pay attention to how long they are. The latter isn't the end of the world since they're usually consistent within a few minutes but it would be nice not to have to commit the average to memory to stay accurate.

>How are your thoughts on Ulpianus (his 2nd skill makes him stupidly tanky).
He's pretty cool from what I've seen and tried. I still need to see what s3m3 does for me since I cleared the story stages while he was in training but I might keep running Abyssal Hunters for the EX stages just for shits.
Haven't messed with s2 yet but I could see it being something I use in an AFK deploy or something depending on how the numbers measure up to alternatives.

>>1629585
S2 turns him permanently for the rest of the stage into a rapidly regenerating tank with his health massively increased after he charges it up.
That's pretty good. It also increases his damage. So if you want this to work well at level 3, you should max him out to level 90.

Just pick Peaceful Mode on the start screen and you'll be fine (the circle between Start and Resume)

>>1634661
Yeah, I didn't realize they'd already added baby mode. I saw something showing that I could get away with doing the bare minimum to unlock a certain craft that just takes a little wood, harvest a shitton of wood, and basically just keep a save where I can craft the giant stockpile of wood into a million of the item, advance time so it cashes out points, then reload that earlier save so I can do it again. It should streamline the hell out of that process not having timed raid pressure.
I dunno, maybe once I got a better feel for what I'm doing I'd want to go back and try actually playing it legit but if I'm being honest I'd probably just keep bouncing off it so long as resource gathering is tedious.

>>1634877 (me)
Also saw some rando's post saying that the event tasks you need to do can clear out the rewards without even necessarily touching RA2, but I'd imagine there's some low hanging fruit that could expedite the process, and I have rewards to farm anyway.

My time has come to get the fish detective for hello kitty but I got goldenglow instead. Is she a good operator?

>>1638142
Goldenglow is very good.
She can be used to attack targets all over the stage, which is pretty powerful in some stages, with one skill, or as a great damage-dealer after charging up her powers with another skill.

Our daughter's new L2D outfit is pretty good.

it's messed up that weedy doesn't get an armpit skin when she's probably the only one who's a big enough germophobe to keep it clean enough to lick

Meanwhile I pulled randomly for her and got her, IIRC. Single 10 pull, just like the Bloodborne guy a while ago.
Arknights and most mobile games are total shit to be honest. I initiated my account deletion today and in a few weeks the account will be gone. I've come to realize the game's a horrible skinner box and I've now reached the point where even ISW isn't fun anymore, due to how everything in AK and the mode is designed. I am sick of not having all characters available and even the ones I do have and are "maxed" aren't fully reinforced yet.
Only way I'll ever play this dumpster fire of a "game" again is if some guy comes up with a new private server client for PC or as apk.
People who play these games and defend the entire F2P/gacha monetization as a whole are deluded niggers. Almost as deluded as the average 4chan user these days, as no doubt someone will seethe about me saying nigger "outside of /b/". Few years ago no one gave a shit still, but this website and its moderation have also gone downhill since 2016. Gook moot can suck it.
For anyone reading this, in case my reply stays up in this rather dead thread, don't start playing AK too if you're interested. It's a garbage chink game that's dime a dozen. Any sort of positives like the "lore" and shit you could come up with is drowned out by the fact it's a game that's F2P trash, which does not value your time and neither your money really, as you could spend 10x off what the game could/should cost as a pay-to-play game, and you'd still only get a single character out of it.
Game could've been 40 bucks, but nah. It's F2P trash where you can spend $400 and only get a single guaranteed limited-time character out of it.
Never spent a single cent on AK and I am glad for it. I'm just sad that ISW is stuck inside of that retarded-ass game.

I know what you're trying to say anon, but being an open space kind of game, it lets you do more than just slide your power point left and right...even if the novelty wears out in just a few days.

>>1649821
>"generous"
You get barely any pulls and almost every character is a 2% chance, and you'd want to get that character 6 times in total. Delusional beyond belief.
>>1649846
Had already forgotten about Endfail. Friend talked about the beta/whatever test last year, when you could sign up for it. All I remember is that a lot of the beloved characters are dead in that game, so what's the point? Again, chinks don't learn. They'd rather run with whatever makes the most money and somehow their writers always get their fucking way too. I am sure Arknights players would love a game where like 85% of their fav characters are dead. Depressing story for the sake of le depression XDDD is getting tiring. Lots of other games and IPs have done the same shit and it never ends well with players.

>>1649947
Yeah, they walked back on that apparently. From what I understand they changed a ton of the story based on feedback, plus at least three Arknights operators have been featured as playable.
Who knows, maybe it'll be good. I'm skeptical and assume it's going to be a lot closer to Mihoyo bullshit than most people are comfortable admitting but I'll wait and see. I'm not invested or retarded enough to speak of a game that isn't even in beta in absolute terms.

>>1649947
>You get barely any pulls
False
>and almost every character is a 2% chance
This is a gacha, most gacha have a 0.01% rate for each character.
>and you'd want to get that character 6 times in total.
Character dupes make literally 0 difference here. Have you even played the game?

>>1650504
>false
No, true. I forgot the numbers, but compared to something like Azur Lane you get around 1/3 the pulls, at most. On Slop Lane you get roughly 25-30 pulls a week (50-60 cubes) from everything including event rewards, comms, etc.
On AK you're barely scraping by most of the time. The only time you get a decent amount of currency is during those special events, like the anni and half anni, with often a full pull+ a day in currency alone and a free pull on a banner.
I've played AK for about 16 months and I've simply had enough. I am not a loser and will save up for 1 big pull every 6/12 months like I'm a peasant. On AL I've been pulling on every banner at least 50 times, often 60-70, and I had no issues affording that past an initial saving and screwing up period of around 3~ months after I started playing that game. In several years I've only ever missed out on about 8 characters, and 5-6 of those where from that initial period. The other 3 I've missed out on because I was either too low for comfort or couldn't be asked to drop another 100 cubes for potentially nothing. Very rarely I'd get very unlucky on that game, and very rarely I'd get very lucky. Most of my time I'd get average luck, as one you'd expect. And average luck isn't an issue when you get about 25 pulls a week and rates are 7% + 2% most of the time, as AL revolves around SRs which are 7% and 2% rate up. So not only do you get more pulls in AL, you have way better chances as well. 9% as UR characters are rare to get added. Even then URs are 2.4%. I don't care about FGO and its 0.0000000007% rates.
>just say AK is your first gacha XDD
It's was my second/third and I know how shitty gacha can be in general. AK has shit rates, cope.

>>1650547
>People might think that the devs "reward loyal players" while they voluntarily slave themselves and defend this bad practice.
Exactly. They try to gaslight people into thinking loyalty is rewarded, like via those "thank you for your continuous love for AK!" mails you sometimes get, where they'll give you a few random materials and 1/3 of a single pull in currency. Best thing is that all mail you get has an expiry date. So much for "loyalty". The amount of extra currencies and ways to level and whatever is beyond infuriating.
Also regarding me glazing Azur Lane, as much I think the gacha is way better than what AK has to offer, it's still shitty gacha in the end and AL has by far the worse gameplay. AL is a waifu collector in the end and the whole way the dock works is gay. Dock space being limited is semi-okay, but there being no temporary holding dock for sortieing and the gacha pulls is stupid. I always keep 100-200 slots free just to not have to worry about cleaning things out every other battle. What kept me around with AL was shitposting in global chat. It kept me "playing" and spending. What kept me around with AK was ISW, but it has reached the point now where I simply don't have fun anymore and I am more so annoyed at how I am limited in how and with whom I can play. I don't like the stupid The Sands mode, I don't like the stupid VN or anything else. I genuinely hope some guy will make another private, updated client of AK one day so I can go back to playing ISW how it was intended to be played.
>>1650554
Yeah, same how you could've spent playing OW"2" for like 200 years or something to obtain all the premium skins for "free".

>>1650608
Yeah, they have clearly never played ones like granblue, DBZ dokkan, or any bandai and nexon gacha really. They also talk about rates and dupes, when they clearly don't know that you need to spark to get something you want in a gacha. Try any mihoyo game where you need the character, several dupes to unlock basic features of that character, their signature weapon (which is also 50/50 on a separate banner) or their signature stigmata/lightcone/gear.

>>1651402
>>1651411
Didn't read your walls of vomit but AL is a collection mobage, retards. You can get 100% collection rate since you don't spend premium currency on getting characters. AL is the same type of game as Girls Frontline 1, where you can get 100% collection rate.

>>1651411
>I genuinely hope some guy will make another private, updated client of AK
I'd like to see a dark horse that actually learns from its greats and flaws rather than playing something that tries too hard to look like real game, but in the end it's still gachashit.
>No QoL because it's a real game?
Nah, it's pure greed. They only added auto repeat after HSR allowed their players to do so(both have the same limit of 6 runs btw).
>Great music?
It's just one time bangers with no identity.
>Vast lore?
It's shallow as shit, almost nothing new but rehashed things that already exist.
>Le difficulty?
Releasing operators with def/res ignore and true damage was their greatest mistake.
>Good art?
I agree with this one at least.

I genuinely never have eureka moment in this game since day one. It's either too easy or retry malding for hours.

>Nah, it's pure greed. They only added auto repeat after HSR allowed their players to do so(both have the same limit of 6 runs btw).
Obviously it's pure greed. And the saddest thing is to think about the devs. I'd like to imagine that a lot of them despise the game they've made, as it's gacha shit that'll never live up to what it could've been. But I know that in reality a lot of these people probably not only do not mind, but likely think the game's great actually, because they too grew up with that sort of game and got used to the predatory practices.
>Releasing operators with def/res ignore and true damage was their greatest mistake.
Yeah, it seems that every other 6* that releases now is a walking fortress. Shu is a great example of a defender which is entirely busted. Tons of healing and other buffs while no downside to the block count or other things. Meanwhile operators like Aurora still exist for some fucking reason. A character which is entirely useless on her own and is still outclasses by other 5*s even when she has a proper setup w/ support.
I liked using non-6* characters, but the game heavily pushes you towards them where you'll eventually have to give in and start using them. 6*s have next to no downsides. They're the de facto operators to play with. It would've been better to just have "regular" characters and then "special" characters, where 6* = special and everything else = regular. But this way you're almost being actively punished for trying to use 5* ops at all. You're better off never using them and just sticking to the 6* slop and the few decent 4* characters there are.

Don't remind me. The only somewhat decent gacha they made is ZZZ, and only because the animations are god-tier.

Now imagine a world where ZZZ was a $40-60 game and that's it. A finished, fully-fledged product. I know that's a pipe-dream and nothing more, as even AAA studios can't manage that anymore, and really.. haven't for the past 6-8 years now. Even in 2013/14 we've day multi GB day one patches.

>>1652336

Fuck no. It doesn't deserve that big of a price when there really is nothing else going for it besides the animation and admittedly the character designs. Hell, I'd rather they just drop the game entirely and turn it into an anime. THAT'S something I'll pay top dollar for.

What is there to debate, you dumb niggers? You are factually and objectively incorrect. If you don't like the game, there's literally hundreds of other gacha out there. I'm sure you can find one you like. Your opinions don't matter. My opinions don't matter. Modern gaming is about what makes the most money. Don't like it? Play indie or old games where they make games for actual gamers to enjoy, not to make stonks higher.
It doesn't matter how much cope you write, no one cares because at the end of the day, video games are about making money and shit anons says on 4chan will have 0 influence on what developers of video games do.

Instead they're gacha slop and nothing more.

It's bullshit that Papyrus is one of the top.. let's say three or five cutest operators we've ever gotten and she's designed by possibly my favorite contributing illustrator and she's not worth the investment because I have Perfumer built.

No gonna lie, I love IS, but I hate that work nowdays has become soo busy I dont have time to play it within clearing events and advancing the main story since I got behind

How do you guys like IS5? I think it's pretty fun. I know it doesn't really count since I took Wis'adel as a starter, but I'm still pretty shocked that I got a clear on my first attempt going in totally blind. Maybe I just got lucky in what stages and midboss I got, but it feels to me like it's way more flexible in who you take, while in IS4 I think I eventually came to regret it on any run where I didn't have Reed Alter either as a starter or as a fairly early build.
Who are you using for starters? I'd rather leave Wis'adel benched so I'm not just letting one op carry everything but there must be some really strong picks since free 4* and cheaper 5* ops opens it up so much.

>>1684777

Oh you will need Wis on later stages and if you are gunning for other endings.

Finally I got all the medals from Jess's event rerun.
Couldn't get all of them since Flint was beyond terrifying.
All I needed is Ulpian, Lumen, Eyja Alter and Shu to keep healing the hell out of Ulpian and to un-stun him.
Ascalon also helped by hitting the heat generators. Also managed to get the trimmed version of the medal for beating him in both his phases. And each one I defeated while he was under the effects of the heat.

Lappy Alter is fine I guess, honestly I haven't done that much thinking about where would showcase her. I can definitely see her having some solid use though.
Damn shame about Crownslayer since they made her so likeable, but given that so much of her involvement in the event story and background from her time out of the spotlight is about her frustration over how powerless she is it would be a disservice to the storytelling around her if she WASN'T dogshit.

Yeah, but considering how long it was since the Reunion arc finished, and that some time in the game's setting passed, Crownslayer should've learned some new tricks, improved her fog/cloud arts, polished her skills further...but no. We can't have this kind of stuff.

what are these triangle symbols on support operator?

I think they indicate that you can change the skills of those units if you borrow them..?

>>1745084
>change the skills of those units if you borrow them
I didn't know this is a thing now. I never touched support outside of doing CC medal. Now to answer my own question it looks like the triangle are special mark for operator that have M3 on all of their skills.

That's a recent addition from whenever they updated base stuff. It shows when you have all skills on a support op at m3. So in picrel Canta/Jaye/Rafaela are m6, both Virtuosas and the first Wis'adel are m9.
And yeah, you can switch skills and modules on any operator as of the same patch. It was a godsend because I didn't have the 4-block module on my Hoshi or Nian and desperately wanted it for a couple stages last event.

Don't mind. I forgot the achievement was on normal all this time...
What a dork I am.

I want to roll and get disappointed with the result already

Got Thorns Alter after 20 pulls. Tecno does look cute, but I'm saving the rest for upcoming stuff.

I got the Thorns Alter theme stuck in my head pretty bad but never bothered looking up the words so in my head I keep hearing parts of the first verse as
>From the day that I was born people called me ass bandito
and
>Ojos al cielo, yo onions el putito

>OP post is about Degen event
>Degen event rerun in 2 days
Where did the time go?

Does anybody have an IS seed that works for a pacifist run with the king's collectibles? I have a bunch of levels to grind out and I don't want to have to spend any actual time or effort on it and all the new encounters completely fucked the chance of getting anything useful.

Swiftly.

Also C&C collab when?
If R6 and Delta Force can get in, when will C&C?

I kinda miss arknights
I haven't found a gacha that's good since

>Yu is stupidly useful (especially if you have a lot of ranged units...especially Goldenglow and Lappland Alter)
>Blaze Alter is fine, but she ain't so good without Yu (hoping a module will give her burning damage too)

Also still waiting for a Command & Conquer crossover.

Since the beginning of Such is the Joy of Our Reunion I had this thing where every single operator started to generate 1 SP per 2-3 seconds. I had all the Sui Siblings in my squad but when I removed some of them for specific maps, this effect stopped being a thing.

Is this supposed to be normal, or is it a hidden trait for all Sui Siblings?

>>1770976
Would also like Doomguy/Doomslayer and Prince (from Prince of Persia) in. AssCreed is impossible since Reverse 1999 is doing a collab. Same with DMC since Punishing Gray Raven did it already.

>en cant read meme
check Shu's Sui siblings specific talent

>>1803340
Oh my...now I am friggin blind that's for sure.
Had Shu since the last event and only now I see this.
Darn.

>>1770976
>>1803178
How would even those work in AK?
I doubt we'd see Kane as a 6 star.

Darn. The new Contingency Contract is BRUTAL.
Fucking Chimeras and Suradans...AND THOSE FUCKING ALTAR KEEPERS.
They just skendaddle in, ignore everything and grab the beacon.

>>1813245
yeah it's rough...

>>1819926
Very.
Have to curse my choices of which operators I promoted.

So guys, how are you enjoying Elbana?
She's pretty powerful I have to say.

>>1823572
I spent 30 and didn't get her.
I'm just gonna save the rest for the more impressive stuff ahead.

>>1823572
No, she isn't.

pulled her (strictly) in preparation for her summer outfit

>>1823572
Had to spent 60 rolls and now she is stuck at E0lv1

>>1823572
She's far better than expected, internet downplay her too much I guess

>>1823801
>>1823865
Took me more.
>>1823826
Based.
>>1823813
Yes she is. Especially once you get her S3 to Mastery 3.
>>1824039
Yeah. She's Tecno on steroids. Sure, her summons can't attack air targets, but she can hold the line. And her skills are pretty strong. Especially her S3.

>>1824039
She's really good, but not meta and the timing of her banner screwed over her reputation.

>>1833666
When exactly is the next must-own gonna appear?

>>1833708
Exu Alter

>>1833708
>>1833731
Oh wait, I meant next month.

I don't think I'm going to bother with this event's medal set. Bastion defense is cool but a little samey, I fucking hate everything about positional football, and regular events are fun but my emulator keeps crashing when I get randomly matched into one that I don't already have three merits for. I've almost got the skin and none of the other rewards are really worth the grind.
I appreciate Hypergryph's creativity, and at least this isn't complete shit like Stronghold Protocol was, but I wonder what they could have done if they had spent more time playing to their strengths and less time making alternate game modes that don't measure up.to the core game (or to old CC, fuck you Pinch-Out).

>>1834856
I'm skipping it completely.
I did it all the last time they did this co-op thing and I didn't enjoy it much that time either.

Damn, haven't had any luck getting Monster.

>>1834856
Bastion maps are unnecessarily big and don't have zoom out/minimap. It's the same problem with RA. Also my phone lagged hard on the last 2 waves on that map with burning reed. Even though I don't have the enemies and burning reeds within view it's still lagging hard.

>>1834856
Managed to get all the medals before the event ended.
Also managed to get all episode 15 medals.
The last hell stage 15-4 was indeed brutal.
Had to use Shu, Logos and Ela to cheese my way through this. Hell, I had to use Wis, Ray, Surtr, Mudrock and Lupisfoglia to get through this stage. That and add to this three other Sui siblings to activate Shu's talent that generates one SP per couple of seconds for all operators with Yu boosting Logos with his S3.
It was still brutal but managed to win this hellish stage.

Well, Apple Pie Girl Alter and her Wheelchair Sniper sister are on the horizon. Are you prepped?

Also you saw what awaits us in episode 16? The final boss is a literal Originium Infused Cocaine Bear.

>>1863451
I spent my reserves getting Monster.
But these daily gifts will help a lot.

>>1863451
I'm all set. I think Mon3tr was the first time I had to touch orundum in a year because I usually get what I need with cert shop pulls. I might just barely have enough yellows for this month's once I use the free ten when the banner hits.

>>1863451
Gacha is gonna gacha but I should be good as far as probability is concerned, well above 95% probability of getting exu.

>>1863451
>Got shit in another kusoge
>Rolled in Arknights after that
Got both of them with 12 free rolls + 60 of my rolls. Gacha gonna gacha.

>>1863465
>>1863548
>>1863638
Hope you guys got them.
>>1865444
Got both of them too...
Exu Alter is pretty powerful (and her S2 will be stupidly useful later in the game's lifecycle).
Lemu on the other hand is with her S3 similar to Firewatch (but with locking on to enemies).

Dunno where else to ask this so
Randomly decided to give Arknights a shot, but what's the best way to play it on pc? Bluestacks?

>>1866319
google play games has a pc client, I use that

>>1866329
This is what I use too. Also worth mentioning, a lot of people (particularly content nerds getting paid to shill for it) seem to like LDPlayer, and apparently its native PC client is getting pretty close.

Fuck yeah, finally got Apple Pie today. I've got nothing left, but now both Wheels and the Legwoman are mine.

>>1872332
Congrats brother, they're both excellent. It felt like the event was almost too easy because I had them both in my squad for my clears.

>New Kjerag event
>Pramanix and Silverash alters (with the former being able to freeze blue boxes to deny entry)
>Asgene Alter as a free operator and she's a 6 star
>New MonHun event (hoping for Deviljoh boss since it looks like a jungle area)
>And before that, there is the Ave Mujica crossover coming to global
Man, I need to stack up on red and gold rocks...

>>1872537
>freeze blue boxes to deny entry
I can't wait to hear about people learning firsthand that it doesn't stop unblockable stuff.

Pramanix has one of those gimmicks that sounds broken on paper but probably isn't that useful or good in practice.

The ice has an hp bar and I'd wager it takes time to refresh. So in the places where you'd most value leveraging turning the goals into tanks that can block enemies like high risk cc won't work that well because the types of enemies you'd want to stall will kill the blocks in one or two attacks and leak.
Silverash looks interesting but I think we'll have to wait and see what he does in practice. could be the most op bullshit ever or he could be kind of mid, I could see him ending up either way right now.

>>1872600
Sadly true. That damn Duck Lord will keep getting away from me.

We moving here when endfields is released...

>>1876014
What do you think about it? I'm cautiously optimistic about today's announcements. I was concerned how they'd do with a 3D gacha but it sounds like they might actually want people to enjoy it rather than just spend money on it like Mihoyo.

In a few days Tragodia comes. Ready to pull?
BTW, anyone got all the Vector medals?
Got all of them on sunday.
Was all but easy and it required some well timed strategic thinking.

>>1882746
I've got my pulls banked, but I had good luck with Exia so I'm in good shape so far.
Vector wasn't too bad aside from the trimmed medal, that one SUCKED.

>>1883309
Manage to do a 300 with apple-pie girl 2.0 and max out her potential.
Sadly got cripple sniper girl with orbital bombardment only once.
With the 300 points I got Mumu's token to further improve her potential.
>trimmed medal, that one SUCKED.
THERE WAS A TRIMMED MEDAL!?
Awww fudge.
Gonna have to go and earn it while there is still time.

>>1883599
The requirement for trim is clear VEC-12 on 1st week so you can't get it anymore now

>>1883653
Oh no wait. I actually have it.
How the hell didn't I not notice that?
Darn.
I only did the stages the moment they got unlocked.

I've been watching some Stronghold Protocol streams and I.. don't really get it? I understand how it works mechanically, but I don't get what's supposed to be fun about it. I don't mean that in a critical way or anything, I play a wide variety of games and when I don't enjoy something I can at least get why other people do, but something just doesn't click for me trying to see what's fun about autobattlers and it drives me nuts.

I figured Mountain’s English voice would be deep but making him southern wasn’t what I was expecting but I don’t hate it at all. Would be cool if they would give him an alt so I can have something to look forward to besides Pramanix’s alt while barely doing dailies and saving for months on end.

>>1887894
I'd much rather have an alt for a character that has good design but don't perform that well.
Give Jackie or Durin an alt.

>>1894637
>aislop

So what to you think about Leizi alter?
I think she's pretty useful and can work well with Młynar.
Still waiting for the global of the Unrealized Realities event. Nasti will make every lane a Ifrit lane with her ability (and overall make Blast Casters more viable).

>>1903484
Seems like a fun unit but I just can't spare the resources to pull for her. There's some really good stuff coming up so she'll have to wait for another time.

Downloaded the game today and I need HELP. I am losing my SANITY.
>Specter is my favorite waifu so far
>Got Liskarm and Mountain (free 10-pull)

My heart says pick Spectre here but my brain says to pick a healer or Lapland. I’ve spent 3 hours watching videos and reading shitty tier lists and all that’s done is make me more indecisive.

tl;dr
>Spectre or a healer?

>>1909873
I'd say go for Lapland.
She is really useful when going through the campaign, less so later on when the devs figured out that she could make things too easy.
Spectre is only a better unit than Mountain if you need someone to be immortal for a short while. That doesn't happen that often - Mountain is a better choice most of the time.
That said, you can beat the missions in many ways. If it's important to get your waifu asap then get Specter. She's not a bad unit, just not as impactful as Lapland.

I went for spectre when I started last year then ended up never using her lol. warfarin and ptilopsis are the best longer term investments, lappland's a cheatcode when silence comes into play too and she's peak kino.

Yeah, I'd go Lappy. She punches way above her weight. I rarely bother with Spectre even though the Abyssal Hunters are my most heavily built gimmick team.

Well. Elite 2 waifu at least, she can hold a lane by herself in the lvl 30 story missions I’m on.

I just think shes cute (insane)

>>1910198
Yeah, she's not bad. You won't really regret her or anything.
I do wish we had a way to get kernel 5* ops more reliably and for cheaper/free. It's a stain on my account that at this rate I'll never get my last Warfarin pot, or the last 2-3 pots I need on most of the other "good" kernel 5*s. To make matters worse I get senior op tags less often than top op, and half the time I've seen senior it's been ALONGSIDE top so obviously I don't take it.

>>1910198
She's one of the better 5 star guards.
Word of advice. Have Lumen have her in his range and have his S3 active while she does her S2 and have a Defender behind her.
Overall? Pretty reliable.

>>1876124
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>>1924984
Yeah, that post sure didn't age well. I can't even be disappointed, because not playing it and spending my money on real games instead of gacha isn't even a bad outcome.
